Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of 1 Chronicles 12:7

And Joelah, and Zebadiah, the sons of Jeroham of Gedor.

And Joelah, and Zebadiah, the sons of Jeroham of Gedor. A city in the tribe of Judah, Jos 15:58 and might now belong to Benjamin; or this was another city of the same name in that tribe.

(7) Sons of Jeroham of Gedor.Jeroham is the name of a Benjamite clan (1Ch. 8:27); and two Benjamite chiefs are called Zebadiah (1Ch. 8:15; 1Ch. 8:17). On the other hand, Gedor was a town of Judah, south-west of Bethlehem (1Ch. 4:4). Some account for the appearance of Judan names in a list purporting to relate to Benjaminites, by the assumption that the chronicler has welded two; lists into one; but towns did not always continue in the hands of the tribes to whom they were originally intended, and some Judan towns may have contained a partially Benjaminite population.
